CHAPTER #8
Meeting
Hacks from Google, Apple, and

How can you immediately shorten the time spent in meetings by one-third?
Been to a great meeting lately? Yeah, didn’t think so. Most meetings are
poorly
organized, poorly facilitated, and highly inefficient.
In a survey conducted in 2015 by Clarizan, 35
percent of those polled said
their weekly status meetings were a waste of time. And if a dozen people are
sitting in a one-hour “waste of time” meeting, it’s
actually a waste of 12 hours!
That’s a dozen hours of lost productivity, often to present
or review information
that could have been covered in minutes through a different medium.
Yet Harvard professor Nancy Koehn estimates that 11 million meetings are
held in the U.S. each day!
Why
Meetings Suck
Why do the majority of meetings suck so badly?
